This is a wrapper for GetMouseMovePointsEx function that allows to extract high-precision mouse/pointer motion data on Windows. Good for drawing software!

Functions

  • window_mouse_queue_init()
    Call on game start!
  • window_mouse_queue_get(xlist, ylist)
    Adds new coordinates since the last call to the two provided ds_lists.
    Returns the number of items added.
    Note that this does not clear the lists prior!
  • window_mouse_queue_clear()
    Discards the accumulated coordinates without returning them.
    If you aren't going to do anything with coordinates for this frame, you should call this function to avoid coordinate build-up.
